H3-22 | ispace Mission 3 ULTRA
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries | JapanTanegashima Space Center, Japan
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
ispace Mission 3 will be the first mission to feature ispace’s new ULTRA lunar lander, a larger and more capable lander design than the HAKUTO-R that attempted to land on the Moon twice before. The lander will carry payloads for Science Tokyo, TASA, ispace, UEL, JALUX and Magna Petra Corp.

ArianeGroup | FranceGuiana Space Centre, French Guiana
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Intelsat 45 is a small geostationary communications satellite that will provide Ku-band fixed-satellite services enabling Intelsat to provide specialized and efficient service to Media and Network customers. IS-45 weighs about 1 metric ton at launch and is designed and built by SWISSto12, based on the company’s innovative HummingSat platform. HummingSats are just over one cubic meter in volume, one-tenth the size of conventional satellites placed in geostationary orbit. SWISSto12 is developing the satellites in collaboration with the European Space Agency (ESA) through its public-private-partnership program, benefiting from unique and patented 3D printing technologies.
Geostationary Transfer Orbit
New Glenn | Mars Telecommunications Orbiter
Blue Origin | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
The Mars Telecommunications Orbiter (MTO) will provide a future dedicated high-speed communications relay network for continuous coverage between Earth and Mars for future NASA and cooperating partners’ Mars science missions, with the flexibility to meet future Mars science and exploration needs. It will replace multiple communication relay units installed on existing Mars science orbiters. Blue Origin will design, develop, integrate, launch, and operate the spacecraft and network. The MTO is based on Blue Origin’s Blue Ring satellite bus.
